Windfall joyride, dink Hazy pale blond colour. Dry bit not too weak, balanced acidity, pleasant juice, hints of pear, not much complexity, but it's decent for a North American cider.

Foggy pale straw body and some modest foam. Lots of banana on the nose, slight apple. Taste is mellow sweet apple, slightly chewy, finishing dry. Nothing sophisticated here but an easy crowd pleaser.

On tap at Superflux, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma has lots of banana-like esters (that's odd), with crisp green apple skins and plenty of apple core. Flavour is medium sweet, with moderate estery notes (less of the aforementioned banana), crisp apple skins, and some apple core. Moderate acidity to balance the sweetness. Decent but not much complexity or depth.

473mL can, pours a clear pale blonde with a large, rapidly diminishing white head. Nose is full of floral dry hops, gentle wild yeast, and dry green apple skins. Flavour is very dry, with crisp apple skins, a hint of wild yeast, gentle acidity, and accentuated by a little floral dry hopping. There's not a huge depth to this, but it is nice and dry, and the hopping is done alright. Decent.

Pours a very tepid pale straw with minimal foam. Soft apple on the nose, slightly sweet, nothing else coming through. Flavour is soft apple, mellow sweetness, soft yeast backbone lingers. Full finish, but could use more carbonation. Drinkable but nothing stands out.

Kind of a coppery rosΓ© body and okay foam. Slight apple sweetness, vague berry skin. Flavour is tart apple with some sour berry, slight butter. Good carbonation but otherwise a little thin. Okay but pretty underwhelming in all departments.

Nice clear yellow body and minimal foam, tart hop funk on cider that comes across like a lager in fact. Flavour is more hops, grassy, overlapping a reasonably sharp and dry apple cider. Nice dry finish. Not bad, more hop forward than usual for a cider as far as I've seen.

Very pale yellow with no head. Touch of sulfur, yellow apple and peel. Touch sour, apple peel and pretty dry. A bit sulphuric again, but not too bad.
